To date, SHEPL has offered consulting expertise to over 200 Hydropower Projects, both nationally and internationally, totaling a combined capacity of more than 3000 MW.The hydropower sector in Nepal holds immense potential, driven by the country’s abundant water resources and favorable topographical features. The estimated hydropower potential of Nepal is substantial, with experts suggesting it to be around 83,000 megawatts (MW). However, currently, only a fraction of this potential has been tapped, with installed capacity standing at approximately 3000 MW. This indicates a significant opportunity for further development and expansion within the sector. Thus to cater this market, Sanima Hydro and Engineering Pvt. Ltd.

Over the past 19 years, SHEPL has led project identification, pre-feasibility, feasibility and environmental impact studies of hydropower projects ranging from the large 1,110 MW “Sunkoshi II High Dam Project (Desk Study) for Asian Development Bank to the small 12 kW Odary Micro Hydropower Project for a local community.
